My employer has a pretty large presence in AWS. We finished migrating to Amazon’s Corretto (based on openjdk) months ago. It was pretty painless given we already use Amazon’s Linux distros.
What’s the lockin? Is it really harder than just swapping the jdk path to switch between Coretto and OpenJDK? I understand Coretto being preferable for performance and security patches but I don’t imagine it’s that big of a deal if one eventually had to switch
So here’s the thing. This year I fell in love wih clojure, it’s an absolute pleasure to program in. It’s also a hosted language that runs on java (primarily) or javascript (or a bunch of marginalized things). And honestly, I feel like I can make the java backend run more resource-effecient than the JS one.
STOP USING JAVA
It’s so easy to use openjdk. I think the lesson is stop using oracle

What could possibly go wrong with locking yourself into an environment owned by Amazon, or Google or Microsoft?

I think that may have been in reference to using AWS, not corretto specifically.
It’s not a big deal. Java haters know very little about Java.
You’re getting downvoted because you spoke the truth.
@atzanteol @kogasa bullshit
